It is known in French as the Association des Townshippers. The association has its head office in Lennoxville and a branch office in Knowlton.Townshippers' Association was founded on October 27, 1979, in response to a declining anglophone population base and to the Parti Québécois government's introduction of the Charter of the French Language. The association promotes the interests and identity of the longstanding anglophone community in the region and hosts many cultural and community events. It is also mandated to maintain what it describes as "the spirit of neighbourliness that has long existed between French and English speakers in the region." The association had five thousand members by its first anniversary and claims about four thousand members as of 2011.The Townshippers' Association has lobbied in favour of minority-language education and for anglophone representation on health and social services committees.
